Just think of that child that just got kill by one of your street racing rush..He or she will never get the chance to see life because someone that knows better just screwed up and killsomeone's child that was just in the wrong place..Now the lick is on you. DID you win or lose on that one? Think before engaging your throttle and bottle and let other people live a little longer.Just think that could be your family member on the road that you did not see and took there life away..Real men or women take to the track...
I don't agree with your statement, but it is your right.
I don't thing the `lick is on me : (
We have a different meaning for the definition of a Real Man.
[:-]
[align=center]
[ul][*]Real men try to treat everybody decently. [*]Real men don't hit women. Or children. Ever. [*]Real men have sex only with consent. [*]Real men don't feel they need to say they are real men. [*]Real men don't try to prove their masculinity. They're men, that's all, and if you disagree, that's your problem. [*]Real men know that bullies are people who want to be men, but aren't. [*]Real men judge people on how they treat other people. [/ul]
There are probably plenty of other rules, but these are some basics. As for the rest, my grandfather told me that you can always judge someone by how they treat people they don't have to be nice to.He said you judge people by the content of their character, and the actions of their words.
I believe that you have mis-judged, but that is your right.

`Art, -2Quick4U-,
What is your definition of a Real Man ?[/align]

I'll goose it on the highway if someone is pissing me off and there isn't any traffic, but will never do it in town. I try to keep it at the track.

My newest fad is putting the Parking brake on and roasting the tires( of course without much traffic around)... I'm buying new ones next month anyways :-)

Yeah, I've been know to do that in the parking lots as well.

I'm picking up GoodYear Triple Treds. Also looking for slicks for the track.

Yah, I just emailed TireRack asking about what tire they recommended for an all season.. and then, shortly, I will be looking for another pair of stock wheels for me to put street legal drag slicks on.. or at least find a set of wheels that will fit my car AND the slicks... so that next spring I can actually enjoy my driving experience racing on the street

If you have a turbo Subaru WRX, how do you not win races?
